LARSON SHORES ARCHITECTURE AND INTERIORS REVIEWS
The Larson Shores team is amazing - talented, efficient, and with the client's need at the forefront. We worked with Josh Larson and were continuously impressed by his professionalism and work ethic. His design advice was always on point, and provided not only design value, but also functionality. Josh was very conscious of the cost involved in completing the project and provided budget friendly solutions without compromising the end result, and this is a true client-centric approach. I would work with Larson Shores again in a heartbeat!
I recently had to close my restaurant Picnic on Third due to COVID and was going through some old photos and remembering the start. Josh & Carrie were delightful to work with and took us step by step with concept, design, aesthetic, planning, permitting. We were on a really tight budget which they respected. They also figured out how to do my wild idea for a spice wall that was fully usable. Thanks Larson Shores team for making my dream cafe! I would certainly do another project with them in the future.
Josh was our architect for a kitchen and bathroom remodel in our 1950 San Francisco rowhouse. He was attentive to our requirements and feedback and produced designs that were practical, creative and appealing. He provided helpful recommendations for contractors and for sourcing appliances and fixtures, and he kept in touch with us and the contractor as construction progressed. We’re very happy with our new kitchen and bathroom.

JARVIS ARCHITECTS REVIEWS
We just wrapped a 9-month major renovation including a significant foundation repair/replacement, landscaping, deck, doors, and more. Jarvis was A+ to work with. Robin P was our lead and Cindy C. leaned in on some outdoor living and landscaping design input. Jarvis surfaced multiple contractors to bid on the project and worked well with our GC throughout to ensure the project execution matched the vision. We did not want to spend the time or money with Architects but we're 100% sure glad we did. The finished project(s) are excellent and we'd recommend Jarvis to anyone looking for a no-ego team player approach.
We worked with Cindy Chan at Jarvis to help come up with a master plan, including landscaping, for our house. Our 1938 home (also on a downsloap with bay views we wanted to maximize) had never been updated when we moved in.... so it needed large revamp and roadmap to bring it up to our times. Cindy came up with beautiful, elegant and functional solutions to our home while honoring its heritage. We've been able to tackle some of the work outlined in our roadmap (a new kitchen and bath!) and are anxious to take on the next project in the pipeline. We could not be happier in our space.
We hired Jarvis Architects for a full home renovation. We personally worked with Jon Larson. Jon was a dream to work with! He is a great listener, he is an extremely gifted architect and he has the patience of a Saint. The entire team at Jarvis were always available if we needed them. They were thorough and easy to work with. They offer a superb level of care and their work is top tier. I highly recommend that you include Jarvis Architects in your search for an architect.

ECOBUILD ARCHITECTS REVIEWS
Courtney Miller did our plans and design for our second-story addition and kitchen and bath remodel. The first time we met him at our house he had already had a vision where to put the stairs and had a lot of creative ideas flowing. Those ideas were put into the plans and once we saw they were completed in a timely manner we were so thrilled, he did a great job! The city of Oakland approved the plans with no issues which is cost efficient. Courtney is very professional, a very nice person, and knowledgeable and does his job excellently, and all his referrals were just as professional and diligent as he was. What I really appreciated was that Courtney was easy to get in contact with he got back to you in a timely manner. It was a pleasure working with Courtney.
Courtney is the man! He is professional, kind, and always open (such a boon for an architect!). We hired Courtney to help with plans for a pretty major renovation. We built an in-law that includes an elevator and moving the placement of doors, windows, and plumbing. The project turned out great; Courtney worked well with our project manager; and most importantly HE DELIVERED! Thanks, Court!
I worked with Courtney for a smaller commercial project under a pretty pesky time line. He was good natured, professional and knowledgeable. Delivered his drawings on a reasonable deadline, and without issue. He was open to feedback, and creative in his problem solving and approach.
